Agility in the Startup and Venture Ecosystem

How does agility and the agile mindset impact the startup and venture ecosystem? What are the lessons to be shared and exchanged from Silicon Valley to emerging markets across the globe in terms of the agile mindset, risk and successfully growing a venture? In this fast paced "Startup Mindsets" podcast with entrepreneur Dan Gonzales and fellow Young Global Leader at the World Economic Forum, Earl Valencia, we work to unpack how entrepreneurs can adopt an effective risk mindset, draw on an agile toolkit to rapidly iterate and scale a venture combining strategy and operational execution. Thank you to my hosts for tough questions and an energized and inspirational discussion that digs deep into details of the venture mindset- launching a startup, the process of agile implementation in venture, models of leadership, from Amazon to Salesforce, Silicon Valley to South Africa, the latest thinking from Wall Street to Sand Hill Road on innovation, and how to navigate success in a volatile world. This fast paced and in depth podcast looks at some of the classic frameworks from the Harvard Business School on leadership, strategy, operations and execution, applying this to the word of agility, innovation and venture. Hope some of these insights, frameworks and applications resonate with you as you build your own toolkit to suit your context.
